In this thesis, we analyze current state of energy utilization of Sava river in Slovenia, its hydropower facilities and their layout, including examination of hydrology and history of energy utilization. Its main purpose is to make relief diagrams for the Sava river due to a simple and intuitive display of hydropower potential. We have shown and concluded that the Sava river is not yet fully utilized in its middle section between HPP Medvode and HPP Vrhovo. After the analysis of hydrology, we found a trend of decreasing water flow at the Čatež gauging station.
